That link mentions that gentoo lacks a man page for localdef(1), not
to mention one for locale(7).
Other dists have these man pages. Debian in general requires a man
page for every command, et al.
Gentoo should start a policy to also require man pages. Most of the
work is already done: grab the pages from the debs and/or rpms.
(More precisely from the sources for the debs and rpms.)
Clearly the licensing permits such cross-pollination. Take advantage
of it.

P.S. Wierd! ispell -- even though as installed here is older than
gentoo -- recognized gentoo as spelled correctly, but did not
recognize debian.... Nor does it recognize redhat or suse. :-)
